Dockerfile to use CARLA ROS bridge on Docker container

carla_ros_bridge_docker

Introduction

This is a Dockerfile to use CARLA ROS bridge on Docker container.

Current carla-simulator/ros-bridge supports to CARLA 0.9.11. So, I used CARLA 0.9.11 in this Dockerfile. And, base image of this Docker file is nvidia/cudagl:11.4.2-devel-ubuntu18.04. Because, there is the following description in official document(https://carla.readthedocs.io/en/0.9.13/start_quickstart/).

The Debain package is available for both Ubuntu 18.04 and Ubuntu 20.04, however the officially supported platform is Ubuntu 18.04.

Requirements

• NVIDIA graphics driver
• Docker
• nvidia-docker2
